It is imperative that you keep the strainers clean and free
of debris. We recommend that you remove any debris
that may accumulate in and around the plastic strainer,
and around the internal stainless strainer (available in
some models) located under the plastic base strainer.
Should the impeller jam due to ice, no action is necessary.
The pump will resume its normal operation when the ice
thaws. The pump will continue to check for water every
few minutes while frozen and automatically shut itself
off after each check. To prevent unnecessary wear, it is
recommended, but not necessary, to disconnect the
pump if it is frozen in ice for an extended period of time.
Should the impeller jam due to debris, the debris should
be removed as soon as possible to allow the pump to
return to its normal automatic pumping mode.
Removing the Debris and Cleaning the Pump
1. Disconnect the power (unplug the power cord) before
cleaning the pump.
2. Remove the plastic strainer by pressing the two red
tabs on either side of the base and remove the red
base.
3. Remove any debris that has built up and clean with a
mild detergent.
4. Place the metal strainer (if equipped) over the inlet of
the pump and press the pump onto the strainer so that
both lock tabs “snap” into place.
Symptom
Possible
Cause Posssible Remedy
Pump only
runs for a
few seconds
Insufcient
water
The automatic control system tests
for water approximately every few
minutes. If the water level detected
is only about 3/4”, the pump will
shut off after a few seconds. Every
few minutes thereafter, it will
automatically check the water level
and will only continue pumping if
sufcient water is present.
Clogged
strainer or
jammed
impeller
Disconnect pump from power source
and remove strainer (some models
contain stainless steel inner strainers).
Remove debris from strainer(s) and
surrounding area. Remove any debris
from the impeller.
Blocked
discharge
line
Disconnect pump from power source
and remove blockage from pipes/
hoses and discharge port.
Pump does

level or continuously downwardly
once the hose starts downwardly? Are
there any loops in the hose?
